Yeah -— when we moved to a new area/school, my son met a classmate who was the sweetest kid. We later learned that his mom was a druggie and that he was being raised by his grandpa. By the time we met them, the grandpa was diagnosed with cancer. We got to know them fairly well and the poor kid lost his grandpa last year. He has a good family of support now, but his grandpa was so worried about what would happen to his grandson when he died. He was such a good, caring man and it crushed him that his daughter turned out the way she did and that, even his illness, wasn’t enough to motivate her to get her act together.

Thats so sad....I had problems with my daughter so I know all about what happens when your kid goes on drugs. Thankfully today she is clean & sober. Right now she is in England studying & sightseeing, which has me worried sick. I hope she is home before anything happens over there...It took a lot of tough love & many rehabs which didn’t work for her...Finally I left her in jail which did work. I really never thought she was ever going to get straight ...Thank God she is now happily married & has a little boy & has her life together. I still pray & worry but so far I have to say she is doing wonderfully.
